Aurora police have arrested a 39-year-old man as a suspect in the shooting death of his 70-year-old mother.
Ryan Scott Avery is being charged with homicide in connection with the death of Deborah Ann Avery in the 1600 block of South Granby Street.
Police say the shooting was on Saturday and her body was found by officers at about 8:30 a.m. Sunday inside a home.
Avery was also wanted on a warrant for attempted homicide in Elizabeth in a separate case, police said. That attack happened in the late evening Saturday, said Grace Erickson, assistant town manager.
She did not say where the attack occurred or if the person attacked also knew Avery. The person was unharmed and was being kept safe.
Avery was taken into custody without incident, police say.
